Dragon of Icespire Peak - [OOC]

How tall is everyone? Because Rynna is tiny! LOL

Bella is a halfling so Rynna isn't the smallest.

Also Kobold so yeah.

Also a belt of human strength would be somewhat breaking in Serpa's case as he's currently rocking a -2 Str mod. (It'd be like him getting another 4 points to spend on the already enhanced ability point bump.

This is starting to sound like fanfiction "Trapped by the snowstorm and there was only one bed..."

...Sounds like exactly the kind of situation that Fitz would inexplicably find himself in.


Fitz should take the cloak of Many Fashions.

Hey Guys

Sorry I wasn’t able to post on the yesterday

I was just about to say damn another beautiful woman to torment Mina's poor gay ass

I’d be up for that. Still waiting for my kids to nap to post my character ;-)

Would it? I'm not so sure; IMNSHO, it's almost the perfect Common item. Gauntlets of Ogre Power give Str 19 (Uncommon), and Belts of Giant strength go up from there and increase in rarity. The thing is, a step down from Str 19 ISN'T Str 17. Having "Human Strength" means that you can avoid some encumbrance issues and will get, what, at most +2 to your Athletics rolls, when you're built for acrobatics instead (in other words, it's not a 4 points difference, in my view).

Obviously, everybody works from different assumptions, but I think it'd be fair, for either character.

Similarly, I'd allow a common magic item to overcome sunlight sensitivity: 1 charge/day, when you use it no sunlight penalties for 1d6 hours (or something like that). I would prefer that to the goggles I have seen some players propose as mundane items.

These are just thoughts -- everyone has a different tolerance for how rules interact with flavour.

 

[gargoyleking]

Oddly, I made sure he has a cantrip that lets him still be somewhat effective in sunlight. It's a cold damage spell, unfortunately, but Serpa will still be effective enough in sunlight if not at his best. Is also grabbed the clockwork amulet, which will give him an automatic "10" roll once per day. If the target isn't too hard to hit, he can stil zap 'em with a witch bolt.

So my kids didn't take a nap, it was hell. Fortunately, hey're now in bed, and my character's up.

She's a caster, and will melee in beast form, so I didn't think it was much of a stretch to give her a gleaming turtle shell breastplate as common magic item. @Charwoman Gene, I'd much prefer the alternative magic item I proposed before (amulet druidic focus that lets the wearer have create water prepared (no slot, just allows to have that weak spell prepared).
All y'all, please let me know what you think. Perhaps my cantrips are too offensive & was hesitating to switch create bondfire for mold hearth. I'd appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks and cheers,

All y'all, please let me know what you think. P

There's nothing wrong with Offensive cantrips -- it signals something about your character that there's no Druidcraft, and no utility spells like Mending or Guidance or Resistance.

I always like Produce Flame, since it doubles as a light spell, and is a way for WIS-based characters to make a ranged spell attack with a cantrip.

I am not sure we need a third Ritual Caster, so if you want to do something else with the feat (or if you want to return to the halfling), I don't think the party would be lacking anything.

Thanks @Kobold Stew

I missed the fact that there were 2 other ritual casters. I think you probably mean that the classes have some ritual spells, but they need to be prepared, and I think taking the feat will allow those players to pick other spells (we'd all benefit imho).

No one else from what I saw can cast wizard rituals, and I think having the possibility of spamming detect magic will be useful. I also love find familiar, and think it could be fun/interesting with a druid (ex: transform in a small snake or mouse or whatever, and have fun riding the owl, have the owl carry goodberries in a little pouch, etc). We'll also be happy to have alarm eventually, and unseen servant is cool, and when we get to level 5, tiny hut is super useful to rest. Just my thoughts but I'm 100% open to shift to something else more useful to the group (open to recommendations).
Cheers,
